Thou ancient, Thou free, Thou mountain-high North
Thou silent, Thou joyful beauty!
I salute Thee, fairest land upon Earth
Thy sun, Thy sky, Thy meadows green
Thy sun, Thy sky, Thy meadows green
Thou art enthroned on memories of great olden days
When Thy honored name flew across the Earth
I know that Thou art and will be what Thou wert
I want to live, I want to die in the North
I want to live, I want to die in the North
I'll always serve thee, my beloved land
Thy loyalty, 'til death, I will swear
Thy right, I shall defend, with spirit and hand
Thy heroic banner, I will carry high
Thy heroic banner, I will carry high
With God I shall fight, for home and for hearth
For Sweden, the dear native soil
I'll not trade Thee for anything in the world
No, I want to live, I want to die in the North
No, I want to live, I want to die in the North
